The wind died down and the rain stopped for awhile yesterday so I went out and for a drive to see what storm damage there was.
Firstly a small palm tree across the road had blown over and a white light cover from the fence had blown down the road. Came across boats that had come away from their swing moorings and were wrecked on the beach, huge tree had snapped, and there was so much sand over the road at Narrow Neck you couldn't tell what was beach, grass or road. There was water being pumped out of construction sites in Surfers Paradise, Motel signs fallen over and the last photo in this slideshow is the boarded up window where,.sadly, a local man died after some debris broke through his office window.
Today we have blue skies and sunshine!
